MARY AND HER DUDE.
For the GLOBE.

For the GLOBE.
Mary had little dude,
An airy, brainless fellow,
Whose manners was aesthetic quite,
Whose bangs were golden yellow.
1t followed her to schoo bne day,
Kid gloves, tight pants and all,
The little children marveled much,
At Mary's pet dudes gall.
1t dalled round about the green,
Until the hour of four,
When merry laugh of school-boy told,
That school, at last, was DER.
With pleasure keen, it heard the fall,
OF Mary'S number nine,
A feeling strong akin to love,
Crept up the dudelet's spine.
And homeward Mary led the thing,
Much as she'd tote pup,
And when the girl would forge ahead,
The dude would amble up.
The children asked what makes the GUIDE
e Chase Mary like poodle?''
A small boy shouted out in glee,
''Cos Marys pas got boodle.'
Marys pa possessed dog,
A bull of grit and power,
Who fashioned all his strange exploits,
Unto the varying hour.
=
Soon Mary reached the cottage door.
The dude, oh, where was he?
Ask of the bull who sized it up,
And set bis mistress free.-M. j. D.

not cause death until the panther had

of the orators who speak to-day will
repeat the poem commencing:
'By the flow of the inland river,
Whence the fleets of iron have fed,
Where the blades of the grave-grass CULVER,
Asleep are the ranks of the dead"
1t is the prettiest of all the war poetry,
and because of its tender and patriotic
sentiment deserves its popularity.
**x
Next in popularity is O'HARA's poem:
''on Fame's eternal camping ground
Their silent tents are spread,
And Glory guards with solemn round
The biyouac of the dead"
This, however, was written before the
late civil strife, and in commemOration
OF the Kentucky volunteers who fell in
the Mexican war. The one which ranks
third in popularity is a poem of dis
puted authorship-'All Quiet Along the
Potomac Tonight although it is rea-
sonably well settled by this time that
FoNTAINE LAMAR is enlisted to the
distinction.
In the anonymous productions of this
class OF poetry there is none more meri-
torlous than the following, and it is
singular that no one has arisen to claim
the honor of its authorship:
WHERE MAN SAOULD DIE.
4. How little recks it where men should die,
When once the moments past
In which the dim and glazing eye
Has looked on earth its last
Whether beneath the seulptured urn
The eofiined form shall rest,
Or i'll its nakedness, return
Back to its mothers breast!
Death is a common friend or foe,
As different men may hold,
And at its summons each must go
The timid and the bold
But when the spirit, free and warm,
Deserts it, as it must,
What matter where the lifeless form
DissolyeS again to dust?
'Twere sweet indeed to close our eyes
With those we cherish near,
And, waited upward by their signs,
Soar to some calmer sphere;
But whether on the scaffold high,
Or in the battles van,
The fttest place where man can die
Is where he dies for man.

Wanted His Typhoid Straight.

Philadelphia Press.
There is milkman at Brixton who
has a ready wit that lawyer might
envy. One of his customers caught him
watering his milk at a horse trough the
other day. What" said the customer
in rage, isn't it enough that your
milk is full of typhoid without your
going and watering itr The milllman
turned round, and, smiling compassion-
ateiy, said to two or three bystanders:
''What can you do with man like this?
He actually wants his typhoid straight

THE TOMPKINSES.

Miss Rosa Tompkins, age nineteen,
The mythic hammock swings,
With dreams of Saratoga trunks
And miscellaneous things.
She practices her attitudes,
And learns to row boat;
Then reads the book of household rhyn
For something nice to quote.
Algernon Tompkins, fully grown,
Is fixing for the trip,
And twines the microscopic hairs
That haunt his upper lip.
He studies the accomplishments
BY summer bellies admired,
And strives to catch the latest trick
OF looking weak and tired.
While Mrs. Tompkins looks ahead,
With busy thoughts oppressed,
And brushes up the family tree
And exc the family crest.
Although the coat-of-arms be new
And slim the family tree,
TITS well to claim the bluest blood
Besides the deep blue sea.
But Mr.. Tompkins strives to know,
With pencil in his hand,
just how severe a seashOre strain
His bank account will stand,
And looking at the matter with
A speculative eye,
He thinks that swell society
Ought not to come so high.

A Race With q Lion.

La Meta IlmeS.
AS the passenger train was coming
down Veta Pass mountain on Wednes-
day evening, quite an exciting race oc-
cured. At about $3.50 o'clock, as the
train neared the milk ranch, Engineer
Mathews noticed something on the track
a few PAGES ahead of his engine. On
close examination he discovered that it
was mountain lion, and it was trotting
along in the center of the track, big
banks of snow on either side prohibiting
him from getting off. 1t only required
a few minutes to reach him, and after
race of about 400 yards the pilot of the
monster MOgul struck Mr.. Lion a broad
side that knocked him several feet from
the track, not killing him, however.
The lion got up and ran off, little dream

DECORATION DAY.

This is national Decoration day, the
day when we pay a tender tribute to the
brave men who fell in their country'S
cause by garlanding their graves with
spring flowers. As the years fade AWAY
the scenes of that horrible civil conflict
grow DINNER. 1t has almost come to
pass that the war is now only remi-
niscence; and it is we'll that it is so.
While the survivors of that memorable
epoch in our national life can never for
get its bitter experiences, still the ami
moSities of the struggle have all diSap-
peared under the soothing touch of
time. The sword has been sheathed by
the heroes of the fight, and the path of
deSOlation which was left in its track
has long ago vanished. There never
was time when the bonds of our ma
tional union were SO firmly cemented as
now. 1t was through the inStrumentality
of the men whose graves we gar
land to-day that the Ruler of Nations
achieved for us these happy con-
ditions of permanent unity. Their
blood was the price of our national re-
demption. 1t is most fitting, therefore,
that as long as we retain cur national
integrity this beautiful custom of OBJ
serving Decoration day should be kept
up. 1t is not necessary that it should
be made day of loud ostentation and
gorgeous parade, but it is more appro-
pirate that it should be observed as a
holy day-a day devoted to the cultiva-
ton of patriotic inspiration and i'm
pulses. Nor, on the other hand, is it
necessary that it should be entirely
characterized by funereal ceremonies.
If the spirits of the heroic dead could
come back to us they would tell us to
substitute hallelujahs for the plaintive
Tyre, for in honoring their memories we
are blotting from our own memory the
legend of the sword.

STRAY SUNBEAMS.

An Old Citizen: While attending
Commodore DAvIDsoN's funeral yester-
day could not help but reflect upon
the mysterious working of Providence
in taking our most useful men away
from us at time, too, when they are
most needed. There is no man who
will be more missed by the city than
Commodore DAVIDSON. Yet, there he
was in the cold embrace of death, while
l could have gone out and in half an
hours time have picked up forty men
who might die any day and they never
would be missed. Some of them are
older than the commodore was, and yet
they look as if they were going to live
hundred years yet.
~
They say Commodore DAVIDSON
died from Overwork. Did it ever occur
to you that there are great many dying
these days from the same malady? You
see them every day and everywhere.
They are always on the go, and while
they are going they are thinking, too.
Brain and body both wearing out under
the never-ceasing strain. You suggest
to them that they ought to call halt
and relax the tension. They say you
are right, but they can't find a place to
let go. And they never do find it until
Death cuts the brittle thread and marks
the premature grave as the letting go
place.
They say, too, that the collaborating
conditions of our Northwestern climate
produce nervous energy which is
wonderful assistant in wearing out peo-
pie. They become so chock full of
energy under our climatic conditions
that they can't keep still if they want
to. Ordinary observation confirms the
truthfulness of this theory. 1t makes
no difference how lazy person is when
he comes to Minnesota he acquires in
dustrious habits. Even those who fol-
low loafing for vocation do it indus
triouSly.
